DCP,

Malls, churches, park gazebos, subject's place of work, are optional locations for unusual backgrounds and better lighting on a bad weather day. Or get an inexpensive canvas painter's tarp, cut into quarters, sponge paint a variety of soft backgrounds using OOF photos as guides. Use various muted colors, make two light in midtones, one very dark, one very light. That will give you plenty of easy-to-tack-up choices for whatever your model wears, or to set a light or very dark hair color against.
